Destiny

When we met we were just a couple kids that thought we knew it all. We fell madly in love, and married young. Everyone said we would never make it. They said we were just kids ourselves. Looking back I would have waited to do such a grown up thing. I was still a girl and you were still a boy. But by some miracle our love saw us through. In the beginning we would fuss and fight all through the night.We struggled to keep a roof over our head and our family fed. Looking back I would have waited to do such a grown up thing. I was still a girl and you were still a boy. But by some miracle our love saw us through. Ten years later we got it together. We renewed our vows. And over the years we fell more in love. I realized that you were a gift from up above. Suddenly I saw a boy become a man. And I was no longer a little girl I was a woman in love with her man. So although I was just girl and you were just boy when we wed, it was destiny after all. 12-14-16 Alexis Y.

Beautiful poem, Alexis. Sounds just like my parents who stayed married over 60 years. Very down-to-earth like Victor said. Very passionate love poem. A cool 7up. Love always, my dear.

Marriage is difficult enough, growing up together is never easy, well done in many respects Alexis.
